["Albaugh, Neil" <albaugh_neil@ti.com>]

If I were the one who had the responsibility of certifying records, I'd
certainly bring a few basic tools to the meet. 

My basic concern would be to check the calibration of the clocks and the
distance measurements-- not that I'd expect cheating, but mistakes can, and
do, happen.

While on the subject of rubber calibration tools-- does anyone remember the
ol' days in drag racing when some dishonest strip owners and promoters
fudged the ET & top speed of some cars so that it would draw bigger crowds
to see the "fastest" racing? Not that I'd expect that to happen in LSR but
it pays to check once in a while.

Regards, Neil
